Daily Routine for 2 to 5 year olds

Children arrive between 8am & 9am.

09:00 – 11:30 English class activities / French class activities
We alternate the language sessions on a daily basis.

9:30 – 10:00 – Snack
Healthy snack (fruits)

11:30 – 12:45 Lunch
A calm, happy, talkative and social experience. We aim to develop social skills, turn taking, politeness, helping and serving each other. Within the nursery children are responsible for helping to clear away their plates and are encouraged to develop individual hygiene skills. We provide variety and a choice of organic food (as much as possible). We establish healthy eating habits which include eating plenty of fruit and vegetables and cooking with no added salt or sugar. We aim to educate children’s palates to enjoy natural, healthy flavours and food.

12:50 – 13:30/14:30 Rest 
All children are made to rest in the afternoon. Some children require an afternoon nap. Mattresses are provided for them. Children can resume quiet activities after a 45 min rest if they do not sleep.

14:30 – 15:30 English class activities / French class activities
We alternate the language sessions on a daily basis.

15:30 – 16:30 Tea time
Again, a social and enjoyable experience. Children begin going home at 16:00.

16:30 – 17:45 Free play
Children can choose to play inside or outside – the activities are usually child initiated.

17:45 – 18:00 Wind down / good bye song
Children may want to listen to a story, sing a song or prepare their coats & bags.
